1.2.8 Driver`s Cab and Mock-Up
GBB No.4 Annex A Item No. 9, Employer's response to Bidder's clarification request, states "the mock-up must be able to withstand external conditions for a short period of time." It is Bidder's understanding that "external conditions" means the condition that has a roof, and in case of severe weather such as heavy rainfall and/or strong wind, the mock-up will be covered carefully with a protective sheet to prevent damage. It is also Bidder's understanding that the ground where the mock-up will be located is a level surface in order not to deform nor to distort it. Please confirm if Bidder's understanding is correct.
The mockup location will be equipped with roof. In the case of the extreme weather condition, the cover shall be supplied by the contractor. For the ground of the mockup, it will be level surface.

the sum of the loading cannot be shared between these 2 trainsets. Empty train shall remain unloaded for the test.” In Bidder's opinion, it is very likely that the wheels will spin, and the test cannot start to work if it is conducted under such conditions described in Sub-clause 1.8.4.5 of ERT without load transfer between trainsets. Sub-clause 1.8.4.5 of ERT also states "the adhesion at this requirement is not to be considered. The test shall be conducted under the non-slip condition", which contradicts with the response in Item No. 26 of Annex A in GBB 6. In addition, Sub-clause 1.8.4.6 of ERT states “it is also permitted to convert from the results of empty tests and certain loaded tests”, so it is originally permitted to convert loading conditions in calculation after the test is done under the

It is Bidder’s understanding that it is required only to measure the traction force of the main circuit for this test by setting a feasible non-slip condition. Thus, Bidder would like Employer to accept loading condition of each trainset can be changed under the condition that total loading condition of two trainsets meets the requirement.

Sub-clause 8.2.2 of ERT states "Re-circulated air (return air) shall be drawn through return air grills in the ceiling and be mixed with the fresh air. This air mixture shall then pass through another filter into the evaporator unit". It is Bidder's understanding that filters are not needed at the entrance of the evaporator because there are filters located both at the inside air inlet and at the outside air inlet. The filters installed at the inside air inlet and at outside air inlet can remove dusts in the airflow; therefore, no filter is needed for an entrance of the evaporator unit. The VAC installed in commuter trains in Japan commonly does

In addition to that, Bidder also would like Employer to revise the description of "l. Jacking up test" listed for "Type Test of Acceptance Test (FAT)" in Sub-clause 20.4.2.4 of ERT to be a part of DQT because of the same reasons. The carbody structural tests require a specially arranged load test setting and the diagonal jacking test to be a part of such series of the carbody

Sub-clause 20.4.3.3 of ERT states that all items of IFAT are "to be carried out in designated factory of the CP NS-02 Contractor" or "to be carried out at the designated test track of the CP NS-02 Contractor." Meanwhile, a similar railway project in Manila, for example of MMSP, has descriptions for signaling equipment tests like "The Rolling Stock Contractor shall provide facilities including a test track for comprehensive static, dynamic, and interface testing between the rolling stock and ETCS systems at their premises. If it is difficult to
The IFAT test will not require the trainset to transmit any signal from the rollingstock. This bench test is to check the continuity of the circuit between the on-board equipment and the train component.

Certain IFAT items in relation to signaling cannot be implemented in the manufacture’s factory due to Japanese regulations regarding radio waves and restriction of factory facilities. Moreover, some of IFAT items could be more efficient to be done at close-to-actual circumstances on main line in Manila.

Air filters shall be washable/re-useable and shall be well supported to prevent passing air from dislodging them should the filters become blocked; they shall seal well at all edges. The filters shall be easily replaced and shall be sized such that they shall be serviced monthly.
In order to reduce the frequency of maintenance of the filter, roll filter shall be used. The roll filter is furnace material wound around the core, and when the set time has elapsed, a new furnace material portion is automatically set. Setting time of the winding is able to be changed arbitrarily by maintenance people. The length of the roll filter shall be reviewed by the Engineer.
